alcove installation

Your appliance may be installed using a listed
double wall connector, such as Security DL6 in
Canada, the Simpson Duravent Plus DVL in the
USA or an equivalent double wall connector,
into an alcove having a depth of no more than 4
feet and a height of at least 6'3". The minimum
clearances are as shown.

2.4 fl oor protection
If the appliance is to be installed on top of a combustible fl oor, it must be placed on an approved non-combustible
hearth pad, that extends 8" (203mm) beyond the appliance sides and back and 18" (457mm) in Canada /
16" (406mm) in the USA to the front. The reduced clearance from the back of the appliance may result in the
appliance pad terminating shorter than 8" (203mm) beyond the appliance.
note:
Floor protection is required for spark and ash shielding, but not for limiting fl oor temperatures from the radiant
heat of the appliance. The appliance was designed and safety-tested so that without any protection, the fl oor
would not overheat.
Refer to local building codes for suitable fl oor protection materials.

outside air

The following are signs that fresh air may be required:
• When there is combustion present: Wood burns poorly, smoke spills, back-draft takes place and your
chimney does not draw steadily.
• In the winter there is too much condensation on the windows.
• Opening a window seems to alleviate the above symptoms.
• A ventilation system is installed in the house.
• Other devices are present that exhaust house air.
• The house has tight fi tting windows and/or is equipped with a well-sealed vapour barrier.
Systems such as HRV's are designed to bring fresh air into your home and will resolve these related performance
issues with your appliance.
